re: I'm considering getting into hockey, help me pick a team

Anyone but the Blackhawks. They have enough bandwagon fans from their own city, they don't need anymore. Plus they're dirty, and their captain is a whiner.

If you couldn't tell, I am a Wings fan. I'd say us, for we aren't the powerhouse we were 10 years ago, but still consistently good. All the history you could want, Detroit, and some of the best players to watch.
